I wish to compliment Mr. Bennett on his article.

He was accurate and he promised to put my web site, 0cents.com, in the article.

It was mentioned.

I had told him how angry I was for the behavior of his fellow journalist at CPAC last week.

The Washington Post journalist never identified himself to my wife and furthermore, agreed with her that the "offending" items were OK. Then he writes a slam piece and attributes a quote to my wife as the "unamed booth attendent". Attention, Mr. Kamen, she wore a very prominent name badge!

The second journalist, Salon.com's Michelle Greenburg(?) also never identified herself to me. I asked her if she was from the media. Then she identified herself.

Gene, typical liberal journalist actions. They would never cover a DU undertaking or some rad-lib meeting calling for the deaths of American soldiers in the same way. They would be called "Alienated youth."

I think I just might have to order a shirt from this guy. The VRWC shirt looks pretty good.

You ar enot being completely honest -- there was at least one journalist who appraoched you wearing his identification and who informed you, as he purchased the bumperstickers, that they were indeed offensive...

>CPAC officials told McDonald to remove his Islam-themed merchandise.

I recently watched
the DVD of Monty
Python's "Life of Brian
."

One commentary
features Terry Gilliam
explicitly say

that Python made fun
of Christianity and
Judaism, but

Python never poked
fun at Islam and Muslims
because believers

took their religion
seriously and no one
wanted a fatwah

coming against them.
Amazing. Fear works. Even
with show business types...

Way to go, big guy......BTW, in case you didn't notice, the headline somewhat paraphrases the guy who started the whole thing....Barry Goldwater......

The 'No Arabs - No Terror' bumper sticker has been popular in Israel for years.

I think I'll go buy one.

WAY TO GO, GENE!!!

I wish I could have been there, but mommyhood has a way of keeping me at home! *grin* I'm hoping I can make it for next year's CPAC.

I did notice that the "D.C. Media Hor" did a hit and run. Typical and pathetic!!

Here's a slogan I created. Feel free to run with it:

VISUALIZE WORLD APPEASEMENT

"Peace in our lifetime"

To: Seeking the truth; D.C. Media Hor
Just found this one, Gene. Good to have seen you at CPAC.

I gather that sales of "No Muslims -- No Terrorism" and "Islam: Religion of Peace" stickers remain good?

Seems to me that, given the tap dancing that D.C. Media Hor is engaging in, you should "out" him. After all, he has made a serious accusation and refuses to comment on the veracity of your challenge to him.

To D.C. Media Hor: We FReepers are open about our beliefs, and we are not Politically Correct. It was not Baptists that caused the death and carnage on 9-11. Get a life!

And you can bet your life on this one: It will be a cold day in Hell before I will ever trust a Muslim again! In my book, every Muslim is suspect, and must prove to me that they mean me and my country no harm.

If any Muslims are reading this post, rest assured that I mean you no harm, for I am a peace loving person who is content to live and let live. But do not ever give me a reason to doubt that you mean me and my country harm!
